"I do not know if this fight showed something, but I'm ready for everybody, and in my next fight I am pleased to meet with the best in the world. If I get an offer on title fight, I will accept it," said Oleksandr Usyk (17-0, 13 KOs) after TKO victory over Chazz Witherspoon (38-4, 29 KOs) in the main event of the evening in Chicago.
On this day, Egis Klimas, Usyk's manager, who also translated his post-fight interview, celebrated his 55th birthday.
